It would depend on what you are really looking for. I originally was going to set our trip up with Kent Outdoors but at the time I was booking they weren't really killing a lot of ducks. Kent has far and away a nicer lodge, it's a little closer, and about 25-50 bucks a hunt cheaper. I ended up going with Goosereapers because they were hammering Canadas and ducks all season.
We ended up having bad goose hunts on their standards but they still finished the year with over a 60 Canada bag limit average for the season. The Duck hunt was one of a kind. 60 mallards/widgeons in less than three hours and if we wouldn't have been hunting in 30mph winds we would have shot a 10 man limit MUCH sooner. Kent got on the ducks the second split but they kill kind of a variety bag day in and day out. Lots of redheads, spoonies, and some mallards, widgeon,Pintails. GooseReapers is Strictly Mallards, Pintails, widgeons and idk if Kent kills any geese. If you want and atmosphere I'd probably recommend Kent outdoors but if you want to strictly burn the barrel off shooting quality ducks I'd lean towards GooseReapers. If you do Instagram you can add both guides and look for yourself.

The guides we hunted with were kind of smart asses. And we had a problem with the guides throwing up and shooting at pairs and groups of less than 5 birds while we had a group of 8-10 paying hunters. A couple people in my party didn't take to kindly to it and after words were exchanged between my brothers FIL and one of the guides we didn't have anymore issues.

Thanks for the write up. I sent an email to Kent to see if we could duck hunt and add hogs. We are still in planning so Goose Reapers is still an option.

We're probably taking a break from KS for a year as well and I'm looking at making a trip to OK or N TX. Mallards are fun and all but I would like to shoot a nice mixed bag of pintals, mallars, and wigeon if we can get on them good.
